Özet

Forest fires caused by different environmental and human factors are responsible for the extensive destruction of natural and economic resources. Modern machine learning techniques have become popular in developing very accurate and precise susceptibility maps of various natural disasters to help reduce the occurrence of such calamities. The present study has applied and tested multiple algorithms to map the areas susceptible to wildfire in the Mediterranean Region of Turkey. Besides, the performance of XGBoost, CatBoost, Gradient Boost, AdaBoost, and LightGBM methods for wildfire susceptibility mapping is also examined. The results have revealed the higher testing accuracy of CatBoost (95.47%) algorithm, followed by LightGBM (94.70%), XGBoost (88.8%), AdaBoost (86.0%), and GBM (84.48%) algorithms. Resultant wildfire susceptibility maps provide proper inventories for forest engineers, planners, and local governments for future policies regarding disaster management in Turkey.
